The American Journal of Legal History was founded in 1957 and was the first English-language periodical in the field. It was relaunched as an Oxford University Press (OUP) publication from 2016.

The new AJLH aims to publish outstanding scholarship on all facets and periods of legal history. While retaining its focus on American legal history, it accommodates the enormous broadening of the intellectual horizon of the discipline over the past decade and is particularly interested in contributions of a comparative, international or transnational nature. Book reviews are a regular feature.
